Data Lovers? (Weight & Body Fat)

So, I was stalled for about a week (the horrors!), but was feeling really strong and seeing my body fat % drop consistently throughout the week.  I am kind of a data nerd, so I decided to graph my weight and body fat % over the past 3 months.  I think adding in some consistent full body weight lifting is helping me make progress, maybe it is just mental, but I like it.  

Here is my data - I got it off of myfitnesspal.  There is this cool add on that makes it very easy to download your data: http://foodfastfit.com/

This looks really cool. How did you get your Body Fat measurement into myfitnesspal ?

I have the aria scale.  It automatically sync's whenever i weight myself.  It sends my weight and body fat % to myfitness pal.  I love it!

Hey Stacy, that looks awesome!  I have a question for you on the fitbit.  Are you using it as shown on your graph?  I'm going to a "Get Fit" presentation at my work and they are giving all attendees a fitbit (cool, eh?).  I guess it has mutiple uses.  What do you mainly use yours for?  Thanks!

So - I ussually wear my fitbit.  It tracks my steps which is cool, but I track my exercise as I do it.  So often on myfitnesspal, the fitbit calorie adjustment is nulled out.  What I like about it, is that it does make me more aware of the stairs vs the elevator, and how inactive i am when I am working from home.  

I love the scale more than the fitbit b/c it track it.  When I would have a bad day before, I would not note it down and that would lead me to getting off track easier.  So everymorning I hop on and it gets tracked for me.  The bodyfat% is kind of cool too b/c when you are stalling on weight it is nice to see the fat going down.

Thank you!  Things are slowing down.  It's been ok so far, but I am worried about losing momentum.

It will slow down Stacy but just keep on this same path.  Don't give up!  It's easy for some people to want to throw in the towel when they get so close.  But I think you are doing fantastic!
